Hello,
I have a 2003 Golf TDI. Just had the battery replaced and experiencing some odd symptoms:
CEL on
Glow plug light flashing
Power windows in front don't go up all the way automatically, need to hold the switch in
The battery went bad unexpectedly so it was replaced at a shop without VW or Diesel expertise. The lights come on a few seconds after the car starts running. I asked them about that and they said it will go away in a few days.
Flashing glow plug light indicates brake light failure normally but not the case here.
Kind of annoying that now I need to hold in the window switch like a typical American car to raise the window fully.
I don't have a VAGCOM, would I be able to resolve this with one? Would it help to bring it to the dealer?
Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide,
